Interim guidelines for shipping in connection with the situation in Ukraine

Approximately 1,500 Ukrainian and 2,700 Russian seafarers work on board ships flying the flag of the Netherlands. In some cases, it is not possible to relieve the crew due to restrictions on disembarking or travel. In other cases, the unsafe situation in the country-of-origin forces seafarers to stay on board longer than planned. Of course, the crisis in Ukraine can also have consequences for working and living conditions on board.

IL&T has therefore updated its guidelines as of June 7, 2024.
